, .■' Septic Tank Drain
Question; All our drain pipes run
Into the septic tank. I recently heard
that the kitchen sink drain should
not be connected to the tank because
of possible damage from soapsuds
and drain cleaning compounds. Is
this true?
Answer; For best results the
kitchen sink should be connected to
a septic tank through a separate
•drainpipe provided with a grease-
trap. This trap will separate the
grease from the rest of the drainage
and you will not need to use a drain
-cleaning compound. Also, the op-
■eration of the septic tank will be
greatly improved. Any plumber can
install a grease-trap.
Refinishing a Table
Question: Can I refinish a kitchen
table top made of wood? The finish
would have to be water resistant,
and not require frequent refinishing.
Answer: Refinishing with a quick-
drying synthetic resin varnish is one
method. Another is to apply sev-
eral soaking coats of boiled linseed
oil. Allow each coat to soak in

Safe-Su re
The facts are on the side of the
one who opposes the liquor traffic,
and they are so plentiful and so
devastating that the industry does
not care to face them. Their “best
bet” is to use propaganda so skill-
fully prepared as to disarm the
reader. If the propaganda is truth-
ful, it is only because it has to be,
and only in that measure.
Our lesson suggests several points
in the liquor propaganda, each of
which we can prove to be untrue.
1. They Say, “Enjoy Life, That’s
What We Are Here For” (Prov. 21:
17).
Consider the ads of the liquor
trade. They carry the beautiful
lady, the brilliant young man, the
socially correct surroundings, riches,
ease, etc. They suggest that even
the grandmother in the home ap-
proves the use of intoxicants to
bring comfort and pleasure to the
breadwinner in the home.
What is the truth? Man is not
here for pleasure; he is here to
serve God. History demonstrates
that the nation that lives for pleas-
ure, especially in connection with
the use of intoxicants, is doomed to
extinction.
II. They Say, “Liquor Is Not
Dangerous” (Prov. 23:32).
It is presented as a pleasant and
harmless stimulant, when in fact it
is known to science, to police and
social welfare Workers as a narcotic
which not only upsets digestion and
deranges physical processes but,
most vicious of all, “affects person-
ality by its action upon the certain
specific brain area. It disturbs,
confuses, slows down, and removes
the restraints, the checks and bal-
ances which make a well-rounded
personality. It is the highest func-
tional level of the brain, the per-
sonality level, which is first put
into eclipse by the action of alco-
hol” (Carson Taylor).
III. They Say, “Those Who Op-
pose Liquor Are Fanatics” (Isa. 5:
20, 21, 23).
The prophet answers that claim by
pointing out that those who favor
the use of alcohol are the ones who
call evil good and good evil, etc. A
little study of liquor propaganda as
it appears in the advertising of the
industry soon demonstrates that
fact. Of late they have been trying
to convince us that beer is just a
soft drink for the home. Any police-
man who has seen a man drunk on
beer, and any social or religious
worker who has seen the destruc-
tion it has wrought in the home and
in society, knows that is not true.
IV. They Say, “Strong Men and
Leaders Are Drinkers” (Isa. 5:22).
Sadly enough, many of our lead-
ing men do indulge in liquor, but if
the truth were out, it would be
known that they are less capable
as leaders and weaker men for

AMERICAN RED CROSS
NEWEST of all the American
— Red Cross activities is the
Wool Conservation program. Un-
der it, volunteers from the more
than 3,700 Red Cross chapters
throughout the nation collect
scraps of new, unused wool and
place them in reprocessing chan-
nels.
The Wool Conservation program
was developed jointly by the War
Production board and the Red
Cross when it became apparent
that the nation faced a serious
wool shortage. There were only
two ways in which this shortage
could be alleviated within the next
year. The first was by cutting
down wool consumption in every
possible way by restyling and re-
designing garments to save wool.
The .second was to have every
scrap of new, unused wool reproc-
essed as rapidly as possible. The
Red Cross was selected to do this
job.
Under the agreement be-
tween the Red Cross and the
War Production hoard, the
3,700 Red Cross chapters ar-
range for the collection of
trousers cuff clippings, wool
samples and other wool clips
from tailors, men’s clothing
stores, department stores,
clothing manufacturers and
cleaners. These are then
placed in reprocessing chan-
nels by selling them to wool
reclaiming firms.
When reprocessed into wool
cloth, the clippings from 21 pairs
of men’s trousers will be enough
to make a complete soldier’s uni-
form or another civilian suit.
Proceeds from the sale of the
wool clips collected under the
Wool Conservation program are
retained by the local Red Cross
chapters to carry on their work of
War Relief and Civilian Defense
Preparedness training.

CLOSET WITH DRY AIR AN OFF-
SET TO MILDEW
j A LL summer long come reports
4- of dampness and mildewing in
summer houses near the ocean or
other large bodies of water. In hu-
mid and rainy periods the air of
fliese houses is likely to be so damp
that mold forms on clothing, and
•especially on shoes and other leath-
er articles. One way to get around
this is to utilize heat radiated by
the kitchen chimney. This can be
done by building closets around the
chimney. The volume of heat thrown
out by the chimney is not great, but
it is continuous, and the air in these
closets is dry enough to prevent
mildewing. Another idea is to set
an electric bulb on the floor of the
closet and to burn it continuously.
With the door shut, enough heat
will be thrown out to keep the closet
air dry. The, bulb need hot be
’ i large; 25 watts will have a decided
/ ’ •effect. Care should be taken to keep
anything burnable out of contact
with the bulb. It should not lie on
the floor, but be on a safe lamp
base.

their use of it. And who has not
seen a leader become a poor dere-
lict by the alcohol route, or a strong
man become a jittery mental, mor-
al, and physical wreck in the same
way.
The work of a nation in both war
and peace is done by sober, steady,
trustworthy men who have a “clear
head,” not because they use a cer-
tain whisky but because they do not
use it.
V. They Say, “The Pleasure is
Worth the Price” (Hosea 4:11; Joel
13:2, 3).
The wicked ones who captured
Israel felt they made a good trade
when they gave a boy for a harlot,
or exchanged a girl for wine. The
modern system of making merchan-
dise of boys and girls is not as open-
ly crass as that, but when you figure
the cost of alcohol to our land, be
sure to add in the girls who have
gone into iniquity by the way of
tavern hostesses and the boys who
have lost everything sacred be-
cause of “booze.”
Remember too that the beer mak-
ers are deliberately using this war
to cultivate a taste for beer in
millions of young men—their fu-
ture customers—and we are letting
them get away with it, right in the
army camps.
VI. They Say, “Drinking and Re-
ligion Go Well Together” (Eph. 5:18).
The contrast of Paul gives that
claim the direct brand of falsehood.
Being drunk with wine is the exact
opposite of spirituality.
Liquor interests know that if
church members can be led to be-
lieve that wine at dinner, beer as a
soft drink—and an occasional social
cocktail—is not incompatible with
religious life, they will have effectu-
ally shut the mouth of.the opposition
they fear the most—the church.
Let pastors and church boards
deal plainly and drastically with
drinking church members, and the
church will profit spiritually, and

Stains on Copper
Question: In repairing a large cop-
per window frame, muriatic acid
was sprayed on its lower part. The
1 4 result is a sprinkling of what looks
I F- like rust on the lower part of the
I frame. The acid has also stained
a part of the slate roof. What will
remove the stain?
Answer: Acid that remains in the
I copper and on the slate can be
I neutralized by washing with house-
L ■ hold ammonia. The stains can then
P be removed with fine steel wool or

Removing Asbestos Paper
Question: Several years ago the
■ hot air pipes in our cellar were cov-
ered with asbestos paper. I find that
this is a mistake, for the cellar is
too cold and the floors above the
cellar are also cold. How can the
asbestos be removed?
Answer: The kind of paste usually
used with asbestos paper can be
I softened by soaking with water.
However, this will probably soften
the paper so much that it will tear
when being taken off.
